Respect is earned not given. I'm old enough to have been raised similarly to you, but I have learned that kindness and help is something that not everyone deserves, particularly if they believe they are entitled to it (young or old). Your upbringing is the exploit by which (((they))) corrupted the world on your watch and also why you believe in the Q psyop. This is one of the many reasons most old people ruined the children's futures.
Agree, a few may not deserve help or a kind word because of how they act ... but they are scarce among the locals in my area. I treat most people with respect until they do/say something that indicates they don't deserve it. The majority are good people - then there are the very well off, typically Democrat entitled city dwelling tourists ... from every age group. We put up with them 4 months a year, they bring a lot of cash into the state and a lot of jobs depend on that.

Yet and still, elders are to be treated with dignity and respect, it is not something 'earned,' it is something commanded of God, for the sake of an orderly society. Sure, it is qualified, as all things are.
An old man coming at you with a knife should be defended against. But 'honor thy father and mother' is no joking matter. This is where honorable customs came from, "Stand before the hoary (white) head," and so forth.
doesn't every generation "ruin the children's futures"?
